Lao Zi said,"You and I will go to see the Jade Emperor to discuss this matter."”The immortals and gods still followed him to the front of the Brilliant Hall. There were the Four Heavenly Kings, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, Nine Stars, Barefoot Great Immortal, South Pole Immortal Weng, Taiyi Holy Lord of Salvation, and so on. They stood there to welcome Dao Ancestor. The heavenly soldiers shouted, The Jade Emperor sent out heavenly troops and heavenly generals, but they failed to capture the demon spirit, so he couldn't help but feel troubled. Dao Ancestor said," I'm here to see the Jade Emperor. You all wait here first. When Taishang Dao Ancestor enters the Numinous Sky King Palace, Taibai Jinxing and the Queen Mother will be by his side. After the Taoist Ancestor and the Jade Emperor finished their greetings, they met with the Queen Mother and sat down. Laojun asked: I know about the demon spirit. The Jade Emperor said, This year, the demon spirits caused trouble and he was very angry. Old Lord said, Where was the demon spirit born?" The Jade Emperor said," The demon spirit was born from an immortal tree on Dongling Sacred Mountain after thousands of years." When he was born, he could talk and walk. He heard the Clairaudient Hearing and told me about it. But I didn't mind because he was born from heaven and earth. I liked him very much, so I didn't pursue the matter. However, the demon spirit snatched the divine metal of the Dragon Palace and asked for a suit of armor. He also went to the underworld to bring those demons and ghosts to destroy the Life and Death Book so that they could live forever and live as long as heaven. When the Four Dragon Kings and the Ten Yama Kings reported this matter, I wanted to arrest and discipline them strictly. I wanted to serve the Heavenly Court in the future, hoping to bring good fortune to the Three Realms. However, this demon spirit did not know how to appreciate kindness and caused a ruckus among the gods, embarrassing me. In the Three Realms, anyone with nine apertures can become an immortal. If they defy the destiny, they will be killed. The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, the Four Heavenly Kings, the Nine Luminaries Star, the Twenty-Eight Stars, and the Five Directions Jie Di that I sent were all defeated by this demon spirit. Lao Zi said,"Jin Tong, you go down to the mortal world first and talk about the situation. I can't tell you. I saw the Spirit King and a group of monkeys shouting at the sky outside."”Golden Boy couldn't stand it and immediately stood up. The Spirit King said," Boy, what cultivation base do you have that you dare to challenge your grandpa Spirit King? The Spirit King shouted,"I am the Golden Boy, the eldest disciple of the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord."”The Spirit King was frightened and said,"Why didn't you sit down with the Dao Ancestor to cultivate and come here to meddle in other people's business? Leave quickly, or I'll make sure your bones are destroyed." You demon spirit, how can you be so arrogant? Let me capture you!”The Spirit King said,"How dare you say such nonsense? Come!" Come! Your grandpa Spirit King will play with you, don't leave! Eat my sword! The Golden Boy was furious and used his sword to fight the demon spirit. At this time, the sky was already dark. The Spirit King didn't use his full strength to fight the Golden Boy for twenty rounds. The Golden Boy couldn't resist and fled. The Spirit King told the monkey to return to the cave to rest and set up camp outside the door cautiously. Golden Boy returned to the Soaring Heaven King Palace to report to Dao Ancestor. Golden Boy said," Master, the magic power of that demon spirit is very powerful. I fought with him for 20 rounds, but I couldn't defeat him. Moreover, I felt that he didn't use any strength. Otherwise, my life would have been over in an instant.|。”The Jade Emperor said," This demon spirit is simply lawless and rebellious. How can this demon spirit fight against the Heavenly Court?" Which immortal can help me?" Lao Zi said," I'll help the Jade Emperor. The Jade Emperor can first send heavenly troops and heavenly generals to stall the demon spirits. I'll help the Heavenly Court. The Jade Emperor said," He sent Erlang Shen and Demon-subduing Heavenly Venerate to stall the demon spirit for the time being. Later, Dao Ancestor had his own arrangements. The angel was ordered by the Jade Emperor to announce the heavenly edict. Erlang Immortal said, Angel, please go back. We will draw our swords to help you in an instant.”The Great Strength Ghost King and the Erlang God attacked the Spirited Mountain. The Four Heavenly Kings and the Nine Glorious Star welcomed them. This True Lord led the Celestial Hound and the seven brothers into the mountain to deal with them. The demon spirits should surrender quickly, or else they will be captured and executed on the spot by Heavenly Court. The monkey entered the cave and reported that the Spirit King, the Prominent Divine Master Erlang, had arrived. When I went to meet him, the Spirit King went out to fight. He laughed and said, You're the Divine General of that side, yet you dare to fight in this immortal cave? Perfected Cultivator said," I am the nephew of the Jade Emperor, Feng Zhaohui and Lingxian. Today, by the Jade Emperor's decree, I'm here to capture you, a demon spirit that has disturbed the order of the Heavenly Court. The Spirit King said," Aren't you the Jade Emperor's sister who came down to the mortal realm and cooperated with Yang Jun to give birth to a boy? Aren't you the one who used an axe to split Peach Mountain?" If it was you, then scram. With this method of yours, I'll swing my sword at you and your life will be over in an instant. The True Monarch said,"Demon spirit, don't be rude!" Eat my blade!" The Spirit King dodged and raised the Jade Immortal Treasure Sword, wanting to return the blow. The two of them fought for half a day, but the Spirit King didn't use his strength because he looked down on Master Erlang. The Spirit King, who didn't use his strength, fought Master Erlang for half a day, but the latter didn't know. He suddenly turned into a hundred thousand feet tall and raised the three-pointed, two-edged divine sword in his two hands. He looked at the Spirit King and chopped his head. This Spirit King also used his abilities to become like God Erlang. The two of them fought for 30 rounds to a draw. At this time, Lao Zi secretly used a spell to subdue the Spirit King, and Erlang Shen immediately captured the demon spirit back to the Soaring Heaven King Palace to report. Erlang said,"This is the great blessing of the Taoist Ancestor. Moreover, I found that the demon spirit did not use any strength. I dare not bow and return to the temple." The Jade Emperor ordered the Great Strength Ghost King and the Four Heavenly Kings to escort this demon spirit to the Monster-slaying Stage and behead it for public display. He must not have known the fate of the Spirit King. It was said that the demon spirit of East Mountain had been escorted to the Demon Slaying Stage by the heavenly soldiers and generals. The saber was unharmed, and the heavenly lightning and poisonous wind did not hurt him. Lao Zi said," This demon spirit has boundless magical power. If you teach it well, it will definitely be able to serve the Heavenly Court faithfully in the future." He handed it over to Old Lord and earnestly requested Old Lord to guide him carefully so that he would be loyal to the Heavenly Courts in the future and bring blessings to the three worlds. How could this be? Could it be them? The Elder Lord went to Tushita Palace and untied the Spirit King. He then began to teach the Spirit King. Time really passed quickly. Forty-nine days passed before anyone knew it. One day, the Spirit King suddenly became angry and released the disciples of the Elder Lord one by one. The Elder Lord went forward to grab them, but he was kicked to the ground by the Spirit King. He fell down and escaped. He took out his sword and held it in his hand to fight the Heavenly Court for life. At this time, the Spirit King unleashed his mana and fought with all his might. In less than two hours, the four Heavenly Kings and the gods of the Heavenly Court suffered countless casualties.”This time, the Spirit King and the Demon Vanquisher Heavenly Venerate fought for a hundred rounds without a winner, and no god dared to block it. The two of them entered the Soaring Heaven King Palace. Ao Neng, a First Grade Jade Emperor with a saber, went out to fight the Spirit King together with the Demon-Vanquishing Holy Master. The Spirit King swung his sword and attacked without hesitation. The Demon-Vanquishing Holy Master and Ao Neng fought outside the Soaring Heaven King Palace. The three of them were together. The Spirit King only wanted to take revenge on the two of them and did not use his strength, so it was a draw. The Jade Emperor sent thirty-six Thunder Generals to surround the Spirit King at the center of the twenty-eight stars. It was a fierce battle. The Spirit King was not afraid at all. He used a Jade Immortal Sword to block the left and right. At this time, the thirty-six Thunder River sabers, spears, swords, axes, whips, hammers, halberds, and spears came at a great speed. The six clones of the Spirit King fought against the gods, and none of the thirty-six Thunder Generals, Ao Neng, and the Demon Subduing Heavenly Venerate could get close. At this moment, the Heavenly soldiers and generals surrounded the Spirit King, but they could not be cautious. They shouted and fought, alarming the angry Jade Emperor. Thus, he ordered the Primordial Heaven Supreme of the Jade Void Cave of Kunlun Mountain to come to the Soaring Heaven King Palace to subdue the demon spirit. However, at this time, the Grand Supreme Elder had already greeted him. The Grand Supreme Elder said, The Spirit King was destined to carry forward the Way of Heaven. Senior Brother, you suppressed him in Kunlun Mountain to wait for the future person who would take the Dao. The Elder Lord's eldest disciple, Golden Boy, often insulted the Spirit King in the Tushita Palace, so the Elder Lord demoted him to the mortal world to cultivate again. However, this was just the Elder Lord's plan to carry forward the Way of Heaven. At this moment, the Jade Emperor also demoted the first-grade saber guard, who was incapable of doing anything, to the mortal world. The Jade Emperor said, If you can't even subdue a demon spirit, what use do I have for you? Come, bring this god down to the mortal world and cultivate again.”At this time, the Great Strength Ghost King went to the Jade Palace to pass on the Heavenly Lord of the Origin. After receiving the Heavenly Decree, Heavenly Lord of the Origin asked, Jade Emperor, what's the matter?" The Ghost King said,"Once upon a time, a demon spirit was born on the East Spirit Mountain. It cultivated a demonic technique and showed off its magical powers there. It gathered the monkeys and the demon kings of the thirty-six caves to disturb the order of the Heavenly Court." The Jade Emperor issued an edict saying: The three princes sent by the Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King, the Four Heavenly Kings, the Twenty-eight Stars, the Nine Glorious Stars and Nezha were not captured. Later, the Jade Emperor sent 50,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, but they could not be captured. Later, Lao Zi first summoned Erlang Zhenjun to chase after him. Lao Zi cast a spell to capture this demon spirit in the Heavenly Court, but no matter how many knives and axes were chopped, thunder and lightning were added, and fire and poison were released, it could not be hurt. Lao Zi petitioned: Teach this demon spirit in the hope that in the future, he will be loyal to the Heavenly Court and benefit the people of the three worlds. The Celestial Venerable said,"You go back to the celestial heavens first. I will come to save you in an instant."”Honored Lord of the Origin came to the Heavenly Court and said,"The thirty-six heavenly generals and the gods will retreat first. I have something to say to this demon spirit." The demon spirit shouted,"Which immortal are you?" How dare you behave atrociously here. Heavenly Lord Yuanshi smiled and said,"I am Heavenly Lord Yuanshi of Yuqing, one of the Three Pure Ones." I heard that you are rampant in the countryside and have repeatedly invaded the celestial heavens. I wonder where you were born, when you attained the Dao, and why you are so unreasonable. The Spirit King said," I was born from an Immortal Tree on the East Spirit Mountain after absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon for a thousand years. I learned from all over the world and cultivated the Immortal Technique." When Primordial Heaven Supreme heard this, he chuckled and asked,"You're a demon spirit that has turned into a spirit. How dare you cause trouble in the Heavenly Court? The Jade Emperor has been cultivating since he was young and has worked hard for 1,750 tribulations. Each disaster lasted 129,600 years. How old should he be to enjoy the Limitless Great Dao? How dare you cause a ruckus in the Heavenly Palace and disrupt the order of the Heavenly Court? It was he who first sent the heavenly troops to capture me, which was why I caused a ruckus in the celestial heavens. The Celestial Venerable said," If you hadn't forcefully destroyed the Life and Death Book for the demons, the Jade Emperor wouldn't have sent the heavenly troops to capture you. You can snatch the Dragon Palace armor, but you can't touch the Life and Death Book because it's against the destiny. Today, I've suppressed your demon spirit in Kunlun Mountain for more than 100 years. You should reflect on what you've done. The Honored Lord of the Origin used magic to trap the demon spirit in Kunlun Mountain and stop the demon spirit from moving. The Honored Lord of the Origin said that you're a Spiritual Sage who carries forward the Tao. But now, you have to reflect on yourself first. When a Taoist comes here in the future, you can follow him to spread my Dao. If you succeed, I will take you as my disciple and teach you to cultivate and become an immortal. The Spirit King thought to himself,'I didn't even have time to use the Instant Spirit Cloud. As expected, I was schemed against by the Grand Supreme Elder and Primordial Heaven Supreme!' He had schemed! When the Celestial Venerable saw that the Jade Emperor had finished paying his respects, he said," When he heard that the demon spirit had failed to resist the celestial heavens after being taught by his senior brother, the Jade Emperor held a banquet for Heavenly Venerate Daxie and said," Exalted Celestial's Dharmic powers were unparalleled in the world. He was truly the number one in the Three Realms.”The Celestial Venerable said,"No!" No! There was always someone better than him. The Celestial Venerable returned to Mount Kunlun and ordered the Mountain God's disciple to come out. The Mountain God's disciple knelt down and said," I don't know if you have something to tell me. The Celestial Venerable said,"If the demon spirit that I suppressed in Kunlun Mountain is hungry, give him a good vegetarian meal." If you are thirsty, drink with him from the mountain spring. He didn't know when the demon spirit would be able to comprehend it.”A hundred years later, Song Taizong had been emperor for ten years. At this moment, the Jade Emperor was in the Heavenly Court judging Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the North Sea. The Jade Emperor said," Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the North Sea, falsely accused the Spirit King of stealing weapons, but this was just a chess piece that the Celestial Venerable and the Jade Emperor had discussed to carry forward their own way. The Dragon King of the North Sea was not convinced, but there was nothing he could do. He could only float. He also knew that he was the Dragon King of the Four Seas and could bring rain to the mortal world. He could not send him to the Monster-Slaying Platform to be beheaded. "The Jade Emperor has decreed that Ao Shun, the Dragon King of the North Sea, will be handed over to the Old Lord for punishment in the future for falsely accusing the Spirit King of stealing weapons and committing murder and arson. Dragon King of the Northern Sea, you go to Mount Mangling first. If a Taoist comes here, you can be his mount and spread my Dao with him. Although the Dragon King of the Northern Sea is not convinced, he can only obey the words of the Lord. In an instant, Elder Lord and his second disciple, Silver Boy, saw a demon. Silver Boy went down and said," The silver child and this demon fought for twenty rounds without a winner. At this moment, the demon looked at the old lord and said, I am Ao Neng, the Jade Emperor's first-grade guard with a saber. I don't know why I was beaten down by the Jade Emperor and turned into a monster. Please give me justice. Wait for a Taoist priest at Mount Panlong. He is the reincarnation of my eldest disciple, Golden Boy. You can be his second disciple. If I become the second disciple, what about the eldest disciple? Laojun said," The eldest disciple is the Spirit King who disturbed the Heavenly Court, the demon spirit who fought with you. Now he is suppressed in Kunlun Mountain by his senior brother, Heavenly Lord Yuanshi. He will come here in less than half a year. Follow him to carry forward the Tao and obtain the Holy Bible of Morality. Then you can return to the Heavenly Court and become a god again." It is said that the capital was the place where the emperors of the past dynasties built their capitals. Since the Zhou, Qin, Han, Sui, and Tang Dynasties, the three continents had blossomed like brocade, and the eight rivers surrounded the city. It was really a place of interest. At this time, Zhao Guangyi, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, had been on the throne for twelve years. The world was peaceful, the eight sides had paid tribute, and the four seas had become subjects. Suddenly, one day, Taizong gathered all the civil and military officials. After the worship ceremony, Taizong announced to the world that anyone who was skilled in martial arts and proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics could serve the court and bring a better life to the people.”Taizong had heard that there was a Daoist dojo not far from the capital, and there was a Taoist priest there. He was in his fifties and had profound Taoist skills. He would like to trouble that person to go to the dojo and ask the Taoist priest to meet with him today. Minister Li said, I'm willing to go to the Taoist temple to invite the Taoist priest to meet the Emperor today. The Taoist priest's name is Monk Song. He has been cultivating in the Taoist temple since he was young. He hopes to carry forward the Tao and save the common people. He entered the throne room to display Song Taizong. Monk Song said," I wonder what Your Majesty has called me here to say. At this moment, Taishang Laojun came to the court, and Song Taizong kowtowed to the immortals. At that time, the officials cheered and Taizong was overjoyed. When he saw Laojun give Monk Song a Taoist robe and a Connate Jade Ruyi, the Taoist instantly became like a living immortal descending to the mortal world and a living Bodhisattva descending to the mortal world. Lao Zi said," Three days later, Monk Song will go to the four directions to promote Taoism and vanquish demons. He will go to the Jade Mirage Palace of Kunlun Mountain to seek the Holy Bible of Morality. This Taoist Sutra is the Connate Holy Bible that can allow cultivators to transcend life and death and cultivate immortal bodies." These are his protective treasures. Remember, this Taoist robe can protect you at all times. This jade Ruyi is a pre-world item. When you meet a spiritual cultivator in the future, that guy will be your follower. This pre-world jade Ruyi will only be useful to him. When necessary, the jade Ruyi will automatically cast a spell to torture the demon spirit to protect you. Because the demon spirit is unpredictable, I give you this jade Ruyi as a self-defense magic tool.”On the day after the Taoist Ancestor left, Taizong was overjoyed and led all the civil and military officials, empresses, concubines, and imperial relatives to the Taoist temple. After hearing this, the people in the city said, The Taoist priest must have a powerful background for the Emperor to go with him. The commoners did not dare to go forward for fear of alarming the Emperor. They returned to their homes and waited for any news. Monk Song was reciting the Tao Te Ching in the Taoist temple. After a while, he talked about the mysteries of the Tao Te Ching. Taizong said: This Tao Te Ching is just a Hinayana Taoist Sutra. Do you know the Taoist scriptures of immortals? Monk Song said,"Please don't talk nonsense. How can mortals learn the scriptures of immortals? Don't be delusional." Song Taizong had been the emperor for more than twelve years. Song Taizong saw that this person was extraordinary and wanted to become sworn brothers with Song Monk. Song Monk could not refuse to become sworn brothers with Song Taizong. After Song Monk became sworn brothers with Song Taizong, he hoped to obtain the Taoist scriptures of the upper realm and carry forward the Tao. When he left the city, Song Taizong gave Song Monk a golden jade bowl and a document book of Tongguang Wen to let him get the Bible of the upper realm and share it with him.”Monk Song was robbed by bandits on the way. The bandits were driven away by the divine wind summoned by Laojun. Monk Song met a wild tiger on the mountain and was killed by the mountain god in an instant. The mountain god saw the Taoist priest and asked, The Taoist priest was a person who promoted Taoism and sought to obtain the moral Bible. Monk Song said,"I am the one who went to the Jade Palace to ask for the Taoist scriptures." The mountain god said," This mountain is Mount Kunlun. You will reach the Jade Void Cave not long after. However, the Heavenly Lord has ordered that you must spread Taoism from all directions and obtain the clearance documents of all countries before you can go to the Jade Void Palace to ask for the moral Bible. Monk Song, you are right. I will go to all countries to preach and ask the kings to sign the clearance documents." Not long after, the Spirit King arrived. When Monk Song and the Mountain God arrived, the Spirit King saw a Taoist priest and shouted, Were you sent by Heavenly Lord Yuqing to spread the Dao in various countries?”Monk Song said, I am. Are you the Spirit King?" The Spirit King said," I'm God King Dong Ling, who disturbed the Heavenly Court a hundred years ago. I made a big mistake by robbing the Dragon Palace to eliminate the Life and Death Book for the demons and making them immortal. I was suppressed by the Honored Lord of the Origin at Mount Kunlun. Now, the mountain suddenly disappeared and the Spirit King's Dharma power returned." What was going on? Suddenly, a voice came from Heavenly Lord Yuqing. Heavenly Lord said,"Now that Monk Song has arrived, I'll release you, Spirit King. I hope you can follow Monk Song to the various countries to spread my Dao. The Spirit King said,"Remember the words of the Heavenly Venerate!" Remember the words of the Heavenly Venerate! At this moment, the Spirit King had already made a judgment and did not cause any trouble. The Spirit King invited Monk Song to get on the horse. He walked in front, looking for a load and walking naked. Not long after, they passed two mountains and suddenly saw a group of lions. The Spirit King killed all the lions in an instant and took a detour. Monk Song said," This Spirit King is really good. He killed a group of lions in an instant. He is indeed a spiritual practitioner who has disturbed the Heavenly Palace. The two of them began their journey of seeking the Tao."
